Expand network protection across virtualized environments

Find and block threats

Built as a virtual instance of our award-winning, next-generation intrusion prevention system (IPS), McAfee Virtual Network Security Platform is designed to discover and block sophisticated threats in virtualized environments, including software-defined data centers (SDDCs).

Secure vulnerabilities in the private, public, and hybrid cloud

Embrace the power of network virtualization

Support for network virtualization in VMware NSX and OpenStack allows security to keep pace with the dynamic nature of private and hybrid clouds. Simplify SDDC administration by easily delivering visibility and security to virtual workloads as they are created and moved.

Patch known vulnerabilities and stop unknown threats

Use multiple signature-less technologies to stop never-before-seen attacks for which no signatures exist. Use industry-leading IPS signatures to patch software vulnerabilities of new and unknown servers sprawling across your private and hybrid clouds.

Unify your security posture

Get a single pane of glass to unify security across physical and virtual networks. Multiple integration options allow sharing of threat data, so connected devices can learn and respond to threats in real time.

The Why, What, and How of the Software-Defined Data Center

Learn why moving to software-defined data center is desirable, why it is more secure, how it works, and what you’ll need to know as you architect one for your organization.
